<h3>
Installation instructions
</h3>
<p>
In order to install <acronym>ASPECT</acronym>, you will need to first install the following
dependencies:
<ul>
<li><a href="http://trilinos.sandia.gov/">Trilinos</a>: A library for
parallel linear algebra.
<li><a href="http://www.p4est.org">p4est</a>: A library for
parallel data structures and algorithms to represent meshes.
<li><a href="http://www.dealii.org">deal.II</a>: A library that
supports all things related to finite element methods.
</ul>
The individual steps needed to install each of these packages are
discussed in the <a href="doc/manual.pdf">Installation instructions
section of the <acronym>ASPECT</acronym> manual</a>.
Detailed installation instructions are also provided by all of these
libraries on their webpages as well as <i>much</i> more information
about details of these libraries.
</p>
<p>
One you have installed these three underlying libraries, compiling
<acronym>ASPECT</acronym> is relatively simple. More information can again be found in the
corresponding section of the <a href="doc/manual.pdf"><acronym>ASPECT</acronym> manual</a>.
</p>
<h3>
Running and extending <acronym>ASPECT</acronym>
</h3>
<p>
Instructions on how to run and extend, as well as on how to interpret
the output of Apect can also be found in
the <a href="doc/manual.pdf"><acronym>ASPECT</acronym> manual</a>. This manual also
discusses the structure of the source code.

list</a>. This mailing list is where the <acronym>ASPECT</acronym>
developers all hang out.
<li><acronym>ASPECT</acronym> is primarily based on the deal.II library (the dependency
on Trilinos and p4est is primarily through deal.II, and not directly
visible in the <acronym>ASPECT</acronym> source code). If you have particular questions
about deal.II, contact
the <a href="http://www.dealii.org/mail.html">deal.II discussion groups</a>.
<li>In case of more general questions about mantle convection, you can
contact the <a href="http://lists.geodynamics.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cig-MC">CIG mantle
convection mailing lists</a>.
<li>If you have specific questions about <acronym>ASPECT</acronym> that are not suitable
for public and archived mailing lists, you can contact the
